Four Door Hardtop Original Condition Daily Driver, Clean Title on 2040-cars
Lake City, California, United States
|
When I got this car from a neighboring farmer it had died in his field. I was going to part it out for another Chrysler but when I got it home a friend who restores cars insisted that I switch plans and fix this car instead. To get back to a driver I had to rebuild everything I touched. The original 361 was toast. I received a Dodge Charger 383 which I rebuilt and modified to fit and bolt up to the Newport. With a fine road worthy car I started using it in the mid 80's as my family car. The original paint and upholstery were good enough once I put saddle blanket seat covers on the front and back seats. There is some rust around the trunk lid though it never has been an issue in the uses of the car. The radio was gone when I got it so I installed a CD player. You may not be interested, but I do have a 1961 Chrysler Windsor that can be made available as a parts car for this car. It has a radio. I had to search the world to eventually find brand new tail light lenses in Australia. In the past I used the car to cruse around our very rural valley or go on 350 mile trips to my parent's farm or to our big town (Reno) to get supplies. The car has a type of power assist brakes, a push button Torque flight transmission, AFB Carburetor, tinted windows, "Dashmat" dash cover of a sun damaged padded dash, owner installed carpeted floors. The dash lights work part of the time which I have found means a dirty ground on the power inverter under the dash. I would not be concerned about driving it away as is. I have a fleet of running/licensed old cars ranging back to the 30's and simply can not drive them all enough to justify keeping the Newport any longer. I have loved this car and it's service. |

2013 Dodge Dart gets all Moparized
Fri, 08 Feb 2013Last year, Chrysler announced it would be offering more than 150 Mopar parts and accessories on the 2013 Dodge Dart, and we got a look at some of these parts firsthand at the Chicago Auto Show. Showing off all the optional parts at once would surely create a gaudy monstrosity, so Chrysler chose to equip this particular Dart GT with just a handful of Mopar goodies, which still gave the car a nice and tasteful custom look that is available straight from the dealership (and with a full warranty, too).
Decked out in a factory color called Header Orange Clear Coat - also a very appropriate show car hue - this car added exterior styling parts such as the vented, carbon fiber hood, the bolt-on front chin spoiler and a matte black decklid spoiler. Looking inside the car, you'd think the red-accented interior is part of the Mopar parts bin, too, but this is actually what the standard Dart GT cabin will look like when it goes on sale.
2015 Chrysler 200 looks to put Pentastar's cars back on track [w/videos]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014It's fair to say that Chrysler Corporation has been on a major perception upswing with its new products, but that rise has largely been centered around its trucks and utility vehicles - the car side has been somewhat left out. The outgoing 200 (previously skinned as the Sebring) never garnered any laurels, the Dart has suffered a rather cool reception both critically and in terms of sales, the second-gen 300 is a nice car yet it hasn't sold as well as its predecessor, and even the mighty SRT Viper has had its V10 bark muted by the less costly and multi-talented Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. Resurgent Chrysler could use a hit car, and the 2015 200 may just be it.
It looks great here under the lights at the Detroit Auto Show.
For one thing, it looks great here under the lights at the Detroit Auto Show. Eschewing today's oversized headlamp and grille trend, the sleek 200 (with a coefficient of drag of just .27) displays a 'four-door coupe' sensibility with a sense of style that the old 200 with its gawky greenhouse and forced details never did. The new 200's exterior may look a bit like a greatest hits compendium of other high-style cars (see also: Audi A7, Tesla Model S, etc.), but it doesn't come off as a pastiche, it's all well-integrated and organic all the same.
KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
